Our District

The Vallejo City Unified School District is a medium-sized TK-12 school district serving approximately 14,000 students. We are comprised of 13 elementary schools, 3 K-8 schools (including 1 K-8 dependent charter school,) 3 middle schools serving grades 6-8, 2 comprehensive high schools, a continuation school, a community day school, and a unique school which provides support to families who choose an independent study/home study option. In addition, the District has an extensive child development and preschool program and an adult school which serves 4,000 adults.

School-based programs and support services provide a full range of special education services including a Deaf and Hard of Hearing program which attracts students from surrounding communities and a noted program for adults with developmental disabilities. Programs and services also include Gifted and Talented programs, support for English Language Learners, and interventions for low-performing students.

High school offerings include site-based Advanced Placement, Regional Occupational Programs (ROP), and Work Study. Beginning with the incoming 9th-grade class (Graduating Class of 2009), the course of study expectations for all students have been aligned with the UC/CSU A-G requirements so that all students have a range of post-graduation options whether they be a career, technical training or college.
